Speakers in all areas need to be certain of doctrinal accuracy, and try to remain positive. The main purpose of exposure to the lesser kingdoms is not to chastise for past sins, but to create the feeling of missing out on something better. They should understand, however, that the requirements are real, and that our actions really do make a difference to our eternal salvation. We want them to not settle for less than the best, and to realize that the best is within their reach. Since each kingdom is a kingdom of glory, we don't want to teach that the lesser kingdoms are cold and unfriendly places, but do want to emphasize a difference between them. The scripts here are based upon a fax received from someone who has done this before. Consider them a starting point.

Passengers of Flight 409, your plane has just crashed. There are no survivors.

Telestial Kingdom

We welcome you here. You have passed through the spirit world, and are now about to enter the Telestial Kingdom. Here there is no pain, no death. In fact, life is much better here than it was on earth. And yet, if you could choose, you would not want to stay here. For the glory of this kingdom is that of the lesser - as the stars differ from the moon. But the greater joy is beyond your reach now. You belong to this kingdom, the lesser glory. You and all the others.

When you left your parents tonight, did you tell them how much you loved them? And your brothers and sisters; did you tell them how great it was to belong to the same family? Did you tell them how much you love them all? Did you love them enough to try to be worthy to live with them in eternity? There are no families here in the Telestial Kingdom; no mothers, no fathers, no grandparents, no children, only you.

Your one chance to live your life on earth is through. And now your body will sleep in the grave for the thousand years of the millennium.. Until the LAST resurrection. You will have a lot of time to contemplate on the things that are lost. You must stay here while others go on to a joyful reunion with our Father and Christ, two loved ones who will never come here.

Perhaps you wonder why you are here. Perhaps you already know. Here are those who would not receive the gospel of Christ, or those who failed to receive a testimony of Jesus by study, by service, by prayer, by faith. They are here because they have not maintained high moral standards. They are liars, thieves, adulterers, blasphemers, and murderers. They have taken the name of the Lord in vain; had other gods before the Lord. Worshipped clothes, card, homes, popularity more than the Lord. Did not keep the Sabbath Day holy. Did not honor their fathers and mothers. Committed sexual sins. The list goes on and on.. Those sins, unrepented, earned your place in this kingdom. Maybe you feel bad now that you made mistakes. Maybe you thought it wouldn't matter, and you thought tomorrow would be soon enough to repent and do better. You believed you had plenty of tomorrow's left. You expected the Lord to forgive you, and He was ready to keep that promise when you repented. But you didn't

You are here in the Telestial Kingdom because you lived a Telestial life on earth. You will remain here as a ministering servant to more worthy persons.

Terrestrial Kingdom

Brothers and Sisters, I am here to welcome you to the Terrestrial World. We have been waiting for you. Because of the life you lived while on earth, you have inherited the Terrestrial glory. This glory differs from the Celestial glory as the moon differs from the glory of the sun.

(Opens book and read) [] And out of the books you shall be judged. You have earned for yourselves a terrestrial body. Unlike those with Celestial bodies, you were not valiant in your testimony of Jesus Christ, nor did you live all of the principles of the Gospel.

Let me explain who is in this kingdom. In the Terrestrial Kingdom are all the accountable persons who die without the law of the gospel on earth. Then, when it was taught to them in the spirit world, they would not accept it.

Also in this kingdom are the people who rejected the gospel while on earth, but have now accepted it here in the spirit world. Their rejection of the truth while in mortality has barred their way to the Celestial Kingdom. They will remain here in the Terrestrial Kingdom.

Here too, are all of the honest and good men and women of the earth who did not accept the gospel, but did live honorable and upright lives.

Many members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are here also, These people did have a testimony of the Savior and His great work. Unfortunately they were not a valiant and strong in the faith, and only lukewarm in their devotion and their service to the gospel.

They should have been among the valiant. They had all the knowledge, guidance, and opportunities to succeed. Many thought they would, for they lived honorable and upright lives; up to a point, that is. And that point is the point of division between God's home and your present one.

These Latter-day Saints usually attended church - unless there was something better to do, like football, boating, skiing, tennis, tiddly-winks.

They paid their tithes and offering to the Lord, or at least what they could spare after everything else was taken care of. They usually accepted church positions, and then performed the bare minimum to get by. They claimed to be more than willing to help the sick or widowed, if they had only known any.

You souls of flight 409 have been assigned to this kingdom because you are part of that Latter-day group. You tried hard to keep the commandments, as long as it was easy to do. If only you had understood where your path was headed, you would have changed while you were on earth. Didn't you realize that it was never too late to repent while you were there? Don't you know how dearly your Heavenly Father loves you and wants you to return to His kingdom? And what about your earthly parents? All the people in the Terrestrial Kingdom must remain unmarried, with no families. That privilege is reserved for those deserving of greater glory.

You will have the privilege of having the Son, Jesus Christ, in your midst, but you will not be visited by Heavenly Father, nor can you go to where He is.

Celestial Kingdom

Welcome to the glory, the peace, the joy and happiness of the Celestial Kingdom. We have been waiting for you, for you names are written in heaven.

Because you have repented of your sins while in the flesh, you have been granted a Celestial glory; a glory that is that of the sun, even the glory of God, the highest of all.

By entering the gate of repentance and baptism, you entered on the straight and narrow path leading here to the Celestial Kingdom. Your trials and temptations were no more or no less than others, but you overcame all things by faith. By keeping the commandments you have been washed and cleansed from all your sins and have received the Holy Ghost.

By enduring to the end in righteousness and obedience, you have earned the right to be joint heirs with Christ to all that the Father has. You will receive the fullness of the glory of the Father, becoming gods in your own right.

You will come forth in the first resurrection, for you are the valiant whom Christ will bring with Him when He comes in the clouds of Heaven to reign over His people. You will be with Him during His thousand years of millennial reign.

Celestial marriage in the temple of the Lord is the gate to exaltation in the highest heaven in the Celestial World. You listened to the voice of the prophet whom God has sent to earth. You were married in the temple, and you kept every covenant you made there.

You will be together as families forever. You will have spirit children and create new worlds.

"Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Enter ye into the joy of the Lord." You shall dwell in the presence of God and Christ forever and ever.
